View Full Version : RTTH V: Do you want a DVD of the event??



KEISLER

Hi Folks,

At dinner Sat night, Bill Howell suggested that Keisler look at putting together a video DVD of the event. We shot 2 days of video, with 2 Pro Sony HD cameras, and got a lot of video, but not all of the runs. However, I *think* every car in the autocross and Dragon event was video taped at least once. Any gaps would be in the 2nd group, first 10 cars or so.

So the question is, do you the participants want a compiled video of Friday and Saturday's events? If the answer is YES, then we need to determine what we want in it. I will suggest this:

FRIDAY
Dragon:
Keisler has HD video of ALL the Dragon Run cars coming through the Killboy.com curve. 2 cameras, one at pavement level with 30ft of seperation on the stereo mics for great sound.

Dinner:
Keisler has HD video of the shop tour (my group) with mic'd sound, and ALL of the cars at the Dinner/Open House.

SAT:
- Keisler has HD video of most or all of the cars, at least 1 pair of laps.
- Keisler has HD video of the Top 5 shootout, the awards ceremony, and the several exhibition passes made at the very end of the show, finishing up with the Bill's car then the Kuda

SUN:
rainout - no video

Here's what Keisler needs, at a minimum:
- Autocross Video: any high quality footage shot from a bystander to use as B-roll/cutover footage to supplement our cameras, or serve as the main source for the missing cars
- Owners favorite pics: your favorite 1024 pixel high quality still shots of each participant's car and the owners/drivers,
- Release: name and a release to use the materials for a video (we can supply this form)

Bonus material:
- incar camera footage (we have for the Kuda - need yours)
- candid shots of the MAN CAVE (we don't have)
- shots of the Foothills parkway (we don't have)
- vendors (we have this footage)
- lap times w/ driver of all participants
- any classification of participants: sponsors, pro drivers, amateurs, tire specs, etc

We can make a video compilation of the videos, stills onto 1 or a 2 disc DVD, complete with artwork.

There will be some cost involved, and we need to know what is reasonable $20, $30?? And how many total folks will want this. VOTE AT THE TOP ABOVE

I have already invested several hundred dollars of manpower to shoot and process the 2 days of footage, and will use a part of it regardless if what we do here. So it could make sense to get a "Stone Soup" of sorts with everyone here and get a nice momento.

LOW/NO COST OPTION: An alternate low/no cost solution is for everyone to upload their videos to the USER VIDEO section of KeislerTV.com. (You can do this now for that matter.) Then we will organize all of them within the video site.

Thanks for the offer again Shafi!
Guys, anyone that came to this event knows that it has to be the best yet, even without drag racing with the cruise we did. Shafi and crew spent alot of time filming the cruise and autocross, etc. They have the raw footage, but unless enough people want a video, the cost to produce it is not worth the effort. Anyone wanting a copy really needs to step up now so we can get a count of just how many we would be talking about. We don't want money right now, just a commitment to buy if it is produced.

killer dragon footage from 5:00-5:07......everything else you can leave on the cutting room floor. :smoke:



j/k ......looks like you might be onto something. just wish the weather would have been better.


kind of funny when the loud super sports roll past; then the vette guns it and you dont hear anything. :lmao:

Shafi: one thing you might do, if you can get the info from the shootout, you could post the times in the corner of screen to let the viewers watch the progress.

You are welcome! I hope we can get more commits. It will take at least 50 copies to make sense - 75 is better.

Here is an example of a multi angle video from the Kuda.

If you folks have some in/on car footage, we can mix it with our video to get something like this for your runs.

I would be interested in a video of the raw autocross runs like one of the vendors did last year.

FWIW, Keisler you are welcome to use my crappy on board footage to your hearts content: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kOm3_t-B28

The HD footage will basically be raw - no music or effects placed to it. Keeps it clean.

Odd, I wonder if we might need to get you to clear your cache or something? It's working so far for everyone else.

What browser are you using?

Glad you folks are diggin it. I just got back from the Performance Race Industy (PRI) Show in Orlando Florida where we had a booth, the Kuda and a TV playing this DVD in the booth.

I can tell you a LOT of people loved watching this. We must have played it 10 hours in the rotation.

And some people wanted to see particular cars. One magazine editor really liked the Swartz Performance built Tempest, for example. A bunch of the guys were liking the G-Force built Sunoco Twist Camaro, etc. Another guy flipped over the California Hwy Patrol Mustang and started telling me about the enthusiast following those cars have. One fellow from Australia was taken by Baer Brake's '65 Chevelle, etc, .... lots of fun to watch.

It's funny how mesmerizing our cool cars going 35mph in a parking lot is !! :)

Watched mine all the way through in the first sitting. Enjoyed the 35 mph parking lot videos. I noticed several cars collecting a cone and pushing it for nearly a lap before it finds it's way out from under the front of the car. I'm not a big Ford fan but that White Mustang in the early part of the vid appeared to be cooking around through those cones.

I'll have to dig back through the threads and see what the times were.

edit: Well...I guess not. Looks like the results are not accounted for. Would have been interesting to see the times between the various cars.

The white later model Mustang is a local hot shoe named Tony Bolton. That dude can flat out drive!!!!!!!! He's a super nice guy too. He help out with the setup and organization for the AutoX.
